BOULDER, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Custom
software development company Amadeus Consulting’s Steve Loper is
teaming up with aviation experts on the Transportation Research Board’s
(TRB) Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Panel for the project
ACRP 09-05 Guidance on Successful Computer Maintenance Management
Systems (CMMS) Selection and Practices. The initiative aims
to provide guidance to airports on selecting, operating, and supporting
a computer-based maintenance management system within the airport
environment.

“I am so
fortunate to be a part of such an innovative project that will benefit
not only those working in the aviation industry, but those who utilize
airport services as well.”

Loper was asked to volunteer for the Panel by the ACRP to help identify
and meet the changing needs of the aviation industry. Loper has been
involved in a number of ACRP projects for the last several years, and as
such, ACRP felt his expertise would lend itself well as a member of this
Panel. Panel members develop the scope of work and objective, evaluate
proposals, contribute input to the direction of the project and lend
their expertise to the end result.

Steve Loper is the senior quality engineer at Amadeus Consulting and has
occupied many roles there, including chief technology officer. His areas
of expertise lie in database
architecture and developing technical specifications for many
industries, including airports.

"It is a big responsibility and an honor to be part of choosing a
research team that will deliver the best solution to the problem," said
Steve Loper, senior quality engineer at Amadeus Consulting. “I am so
fortunate to be a part of such an innovative project that will benefit
not only those working in the aviation industry, but those who utilize
airport services as well.”

Steve Loper and Amadeus Consulting have been part of, or are currently
working on several other ACRP projects. In 2008, Loper headed the team
for a research program studying the challenges faced by the aviation
industry as it adopts new information technology for airport business
operations. In 2010, Amadeus Consulting was selected to develop a
database-driven web application for the Transportation Research Board.
In 2011, Amadeus Consulting was chosen as part of an expert research
team to help airports create a collaborative environment between
operations and maintenance.
